1) There is no speed limit that is 109 km/h. You were speeding 109km/h in a 100km/h zone. First of all, you should have been in the right lane (as the left is for passing), and if he wanted to pass, lawfully he should go into the left lane to pass you. You should never increase your speed because a car wants to pass you.

2) Like said before, It ...

30 over is 4 points but 20 over is still 3 points. How many points do you have because of accident?

In general, Accident's do not accumulate demerit points. If there was a charge laid with the accident (i.e. Careless, Following Too Closely, Failure to Turn to Avoid Accident, etc.) then the points from the charge would be on the record. But ...

Are you sure it says 159.1 (2). If so, that is an incorrect section and can be dropped due to being a fatal error.

If it is 159 (2), here's what the HTA reads:

Upon approaching an emergency vehicle with its lamp producing intermittent flashes of red light or red and blue light or a tow truck with its lamp producing intermittent flashes of amber ...

The best thing to do is not hire a paralegal as yet. Go to your first apperance date, ask if you could review disclosure before you can plea. They usually will set another date for you. They might just offer 49 over (I've seen people charged with 180+ and get it reduced to 49 over, so its not uncommon). If they don't take the disclosure you recieve ...

I am confused. Who contacted your wife?

Did the police contact your wife?

Did your insurance company contact your wife?

Did a lawyer for the person on the bike contact your wife?

I am confused as well. Who said wife. The guy never once said wife in the entire post.

How did he get your mom's number? Obviously if she felt she caused the ...

Well maybe so, I'm planning on just ignoring the ticket. If it ends up getting convicted, I'll just appeal.

My Mom's English is limited but the insrance company insisting on that I can't talk on behalf of her as I was not at the scene.

That is correct. Since you are not independant, you cannot give an unbiased statement (since your mother was involved). The best bet, would be to ask the insurance company to provide a translator. Translators are ...

When you get a ticket, it looks like this.

If you look at the last page, it says DO NOT MAIL. This is the way majority of the tickets get written.

Then what you would do is take it to the courthouse, and file it, and fill out one of these forms.

I am all for police protecting us from crime and criminals. But when there is no harm, no injury or no damage then there is no crime and the police should not be involved.

If, for example, speeding laws are there to keep us safe, then why does the prosecution not have to prove the speeding was unsafe in order to get a conviction? Because it would ...

Not too sure if she messed up, or if she was being nice to me. But looks like it's good to be honest!

So I received a ticket this morning for rolling a stop sign. I know I rolled it, officer had a dash cam as well. Decided to be honest and tell her I know I rolled it, I'm sorry that it was a bad habit. Officer returns to the car with a ticket for "Disobey Stop Sign - Fail to Stop". Set fine of $85, total payable $110. One thing to note: the section ...

When you submit the request for trial, they send it to the address listed on that form. I was issued 2 tickets with the incorrect address (license said my old address even though I changed it with MTO. They wouldn't issue me a new license because the old one was expiring.), and when I filled out the Notice to Appear, I put in the new address and my ...

That is correct. From what I was aware of, you MUST inform the insurance company of all drivers registered at the address. Failure to do so can result in policy cancellation (This is my common knowledge, someone else can correct me if I am wrong.).

As for your ticket question, in my personal opinion, I would just pay it, as it is a no points ...

Are you insured as an occasional driver? Or not listed on the policy at all? If you are listed as an occasional driver, your rates may go up. If your not on the policy at all, then it will not affect your father's insurance.

Thanks everyone for the responses. I ended up taking a cab and renewed my license. I'd rather pay $20 just to be safe then risk another HTA offense.

I know, I'm really stupid and irresponsible for not taking care of this before, but nonetheless, s*** happens.

So my license expires today, and I forgot to renew it. Is it still valid (expiry date is 2016/07/15) for me to drive today until midnight (gonna run on my lunch to go renew it), or has it already expired at 12AM today (essentially I'm ...

Jsherk, I believe he's talking about the part of the ticket where for example, an officer reduces a speeding ticket, they put "R" in that code box.

What was the offense for? Maybe it's a hand written ticket and the R looks like a V?

I was told that you have to file it at the one on the ticket. Can anyone else chime in on this?

Anything 1km-49km is going to impact your insurance the exact same way. Insurance doesn't calculate on a per km basis. It's all falls under the minor bracket. What that means is anything that falls under the minor bracket is issued the same surcharge. Example, they may decide that your son is hit with a 5% surcharge for a first offense that falls ...

A conviction for that offence is only 3 points, unless you have other points on your licence you shouldn't get the suspension. A G1 or G2 driver gets the 30 day suspension when they get 4 points in total.

A G1 or G2 driver gets suspended for 30 days when:

-They Disobey a Driving Restriction (BAC over 0, more passengers between 12am-5am ...

The only way to do that is to beat the ticket in court. What you would have to do is plead NOT GUILTY and request a TRIAL with the officer present. Once you get your court date, you can request disclosure (officer's notes) and post it here to get our opinions. I wouldn't suggest getting an early resolution meeting because it's the same meeting you ...

Just Curious, Who would be at fault here?

Question: Is the conviction on your record from the trial date, or the date you pay it? Since I have 6 months to pay (January) would it come up on my record then, or will it still show from yesterday?

41 People on the Docket. Same officer, same day, same spot. Variation of speeds from 136-149.

Turns out I ended up lucky on this one. Had my trial yesterday. Officer Showed up, with a pretty tight disclosure. So I walked in to speak with the prosecutor and he offers me a 15 over (Speeding 115 in a 100 zone). I took it, and the JP gave me 6 months to pay it. 0 Points and a $52.50 fine opposed to 4 points and a $317 fine. I'd take this as a ...

Unlike my name, fortunately I have never had my car impounded. However, my brother has had his vehicle (registered in my name) impounded twice for 7 days. The first time the impound was $1500 while the second time it was $1300. Impound rates vary from lot to lot, but to my knowledge, minimum is around $1000 to get your car back.

I have more than 3 speeding tickets, and I still get roadside reductions (sometimes even warnings). Stuff happens, people make mistakes, that's just life. Not to mention the OP has 3 speeding tickets in 5 years, so personally I wouldn't consider that a serial speeder. If you had 3 speeding tickets in 6 months, that's another story. As for the OP, I ...

I also have a dash cam footage showing me avoiding the accident. Will upload here when I have a chance.

Well, after today's incident, I have decided to hang up these keys and buy a metropass.

I was driving a main road (60 km/h speed limit ) and I was doing approx. 60-70 (learned my lesson and stopped speeding excessively). So a car rolls a red stop and cuts me off. I slam on the brakes and swerve into the left lane (checking to see if it was clear ...

Me personally am alike with JSherk. I believe in fighting everything with everything I got. Unfortunately, there's some you can't win easily. Even an experienced lawyer will have a hard time getting this charge dropped. One thing to take into consideration, once you start the trial, the speed will be amended up to the FULL AMOUNT. Therefore, if it ...
